About Us

Canadian Mennonite University (CMU) is an accredited Christian university that offers recognized degrees in the arts, music, music therapy, theology and church ministries.

Located in Winnipeg, Manitoba, CMU has over 1,600 students at three campuses: The Shaftesbury Campus in southwest Winnipeg; at Menno Simons College, its campus at the University of Winnipeg; and through Outtatown, CMU’s eight-month adventure and discipleship program that finds students serving and learning in western Canada, South Africa and Guatemala. .

At CMU we value excellence in teaching, challenging academics, rigorous thinking, strong community life and practical preparation for a career. As a Christian university, we do this within a framework of faith in God, and with the conviction that faith makes a difference in how we understand our world.

CMU builds on over 60 years of history and tradition from the three colleges that were amalgamated to form the university: MBBC/Concord College, Canadian Mennonite Bible College and Menno Simons College.
